How Two Cows Make a Crisis
Introduction In 2003, Canada and the United States announced their first cases of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), or mad cow disease. In May, a single infected cow was discovered in Alberta.

Soon after, DNA testing showed that the Washington cow had been born, and most likely infected, in Can…

The style and structure of Britain's regulatory system, unlike that of Germany and its other partners in Wester…
